Yeah it’s alright. I’ve been using Tumbleweed on my Desktop PC for the last few months and I gotta say it’s mid. They do hard drive unlocking in Grub instead of in the initfs which means that only LUKS 1 and with that only the not-so-secure PDKDF is supported, instead of argon2id which is the modern KDF you want to use. This is a small and annoying oversight in the distros security which is why I will not be using it in the future

I disagree. Have you ever updated your Android or Iphone to a newer version of the OS? Did it seem complex there? I’d say no and on Linux Desktop it’s not different.

Void Linux is S tier

I’m hoping for COSMIC to come out. It looks so promising and the fact that they implemented the panels using wlr-layer-shell is so great. I think more desktop environments should do this for interoperability

Yes but it’s not primarily a video editing app. Also Blender is kinda hard to learn and doing so just for video editing would be overkill

Flatpak is good for chat apps and proprietary apps which you don’t want to have full access to your system

Me here playing VR games on Linux: wut?

So? NetworkManager is also a deamon. Still it is a manager

Kinda weird to call it a Bluetooth client. The only Bluetooth clients would be the devices and even that is not entirely correct since Bluetooth doesn’t follow a client/server model. I would rather call it a Bluetooth manager

The public library in my city uses OpenSuse

It isn’t released yet but you can compile it yourself as the source code is available

Install the exfat driver: sudo dnf -y install exfat

I think Snap has the potential to be better than Flatpak. It’s a real sandbox instead of the half-assed shit Flatpak has going on. The problem I have with Snap is that Canonical keeps the Server closed-source. I don’t want a centralized app store where Canonical can just choose to remove apps they don’t like. So as long as the Server is closed-source, I will stay on Flatpak

Why do you choose to be so hateful? The man is doing good work for the linux gaming community. If you don’t enjoy his content, don’t watch it but let others have their fun

This is probably Xfce running in Termux on a normal Android phone

This happens, because the stupid windows bootloader installs itself onto the same partition as the fedora bootloader instead of making it’s own. So when you reinstall fedora, the windows bootloader is deleted. Look up how to reinstall windows bootloader

Let me tell you a small story about how I learned Linux:

Two years ago I was annoyed by Windows and not being able to customize it.

(What annyoed me in particular was that you had to go to the settings to manage bluetooth devices instead of being able to just connect paired devices from the icon tray)

I had already heard of Linux in the past and had already tried it but never fully switched over.

So I decided to install Ubuntu, everything worked well for a few days until I tried to do something it wasn’t designed for and it broke.

(Ubuntu really isn’t designed for users that want to change their system in any way)

After that I decided fuck it. I’ll try Arch Linux. I was pretty tech-savy so I ignored all the warnings about it only being for advanced users. I installed it and it broke. I reinstalled and it didn’t work again. But after a few times I had a running system and I felt very accomplished.

Now I’m not suggesting you go the way I went. I had the privilege on not really needing my Computer and only using it for recreational means. That’s why I could leave it broken for a few days and not care that much.

If you want to learn Linux. Take the plunge, install Linux Mint, and learn as you go. You’re probably going to fuck up sometimes. But google Startpage is always your friend. And if you don’t get further, the community will always help you.

Windows works fine most of the time. The problem is, when you do have a problem, you are screwed. Either reinstall or live with it. The chance of getting it fixed is like 20%

I believe ARM chromebooks are currently unsupported and can’t be converted into Linux machines

Why do you prefer AptX?
